ATS STATS Team Grading Report: The New York Knicks – 12/16/25

New York Knicks Report

ATS STATS – Team Grading Report
New York Knicks ($NY) — Market Grade: A | Market Sentiment: BULLISH (18 Days)


🏀 Team Overview

The New York Knicks are no longer a “nice story.” They’re a full-blown A-type asset operating in a sustained bullish cycle. This is a team the market respects, bettors trust, and numbers continue to justify.

Record: 18–7
O/U Record: 13–12
Current Streak: 5 ATS Wins
Last 7 Games: 6–1
DMVI: -7.5
Confidence Index: 85%
Market Sentiment: BULLISH (18 Days)
Current Game: vs San Antonio (-3 / 233)
Next Game: @ Indiana

The Knicks are priced high for a reason — but not recklessly high. This is controlled inflation, not a bubble.


📊 1. Market Value Index Breakdown

DMVI: -7.5
Negative DMVI signals deflation, meaning the Knicks are slightly undervalued relative to their true performance. This isn’t a “cheap buy,” but it is a sign the market hasn’t fully caught up to how dominant they’ve been in the right roles.

Confidence Index: 85%
Elite. This reflects both public trust and sharp alignment. When confidence stays this high without DMVI flipping positive, it’s usually a sign of structural strength, not hype.


🔍 2. PVI–SOS System Trends (ATS STATS Exclusive)

League-Level System (A vs A, Home):

  • ATS: 9–3

  • SU: 7–5

Even against top-tier opponents, New York continues to cover at an elite rate, especially at home. That matters — A-type teams only stay profitable when they beat other good teams.


🧱 3. Situational Identity Breakdown

Role Record PF PA Read
Home Favorite 3–0 117.3 104.3 Dominant
Home Underdog 10–1 125.0 110.7 Elite Value
Road Favorite 5–6 118.0 115.9 Volatile
Road Underdog N/A

Key Takeaway:
Madison Square Garden is a pricing edge, not just home court. The Knicks are at their most reliable when the market expects them to win or slightly doubts them at home.


🔥 4. Performance Trend Breakdown

Span PF PA Read
Last 3 118.3 107.0 Locked in
Last 5 124.0 107.4 Offensive surge
Last 7 121.9 107.7 Balanced dominance
Last 10 121.3 106.4 Title-level profile
Last 15 120.5 111.9 Minor defensive drift

Short-term and medium-term trends are both elite. There’s no sign of fatigue — only pacing.


🧠 5. System Trend Gold (Membership Angles)

These are classic Knicks profit zones:

  • 13–1 SU at home with totals above 220 this season

  • 46–21 SU as home favorite after conference games (4 years)

  • 170–49 SU league-wide match for their current home favorite setup

These are stacked conditions — not coincidences.


📘 6. Season Log Insights

  • Blowout wins are common — Knicks don’t just win, they separate

  • Unders show up in defensive clamp-down spots

  • Overs appear when pace and matchup align

  • Very few flat performances — consistency is the edge

This is a team that handles success well, which is rare.


7. Betting Value Assessment

Value Rating: ★★★★☆ (Strong Buy in Proper Spots)

Best Uses:

  • Home Favorite

  • Home Underdog (yes, still)

  • ATS after wins

  • Totals Over when facing pace-up opponents

Avoid:

  • Overvalued road favorite spots

  • Chasing late-cycle inflated lines


📝 8. Final Report Card

Category Grade Notes
Market Grade A True contender
Cycle Strength A Sustained bullish trend
DMVI B+ Slight value remains
Situational Edge A Home dominance
PVI–SOS A Proven vs elite
Betting Value A- Must be selective

Final Verdict: BUY

The New York Knicks are a core holding, not a trade chip.

This isn’t hype.
This isn’t luck.
This is structure, confidence, and execution — the kind of team bettors build around.
